Hmph.

Your view on yourself:
You are intelligent, honest and sweet. You are friendly to everybody and don't like conflict. Because you're so cheerful and fun people are naturally attracted to you and like to talk to you.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.

The seriousness of your love:
You are very serious about relationships and aren't interested in wasting time with people you don't really like. If you meet the right person, you will fall deeply and beautifully in love.

Your views on education
Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

The right job for you:
You have plenty of dream jobs but have little chance of doing any of them if you don't focus on something in particular. You need to choose something and go for it to be happy and achieve success.

How do you view success:
You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.

What are you most afraid of:
You are afraid of having no one to rely on in times of trouble. You don't ever want to be unable to take care of yourself. Independence is important to you.

Who is your true self:
You are full of energy and confidence. You are unpredictable, with moods changing as quickly as an ocean. You might occasionally be calm and still, but never for long.

blinded

As usual, carelessness comes in during tests. I didn't even have to calculate the answer, just needed to write the correct multiple choice answer in the blank. Yet, I was so blinded by the wrong answer, because in the back of my head, I automatically rounded up the answer and was wondering why the lecturers do not give the exact answer as one of the choice.

Only seeing what I want to see, and missing out on other choices, including super obvious ones already laid out in front of me seems to be what I like to do. :(

NUSCO Allure '09

Attending practices has been part of my life since I returned from Hong Kong. From the first Saturday in Singapore, with a lot of unwillingness, I dragged myself to CFA for the practice. Over the weeks, I started enjoying the practices more and more though, and going to CFA has become a routine, part of my lifestyle and stopped feeling so much like a chore.

Finally, all the efforts paid of last Saturday when the concert was finally staged. With many visual effects, I believe the whole experience of watching the concert is very different from any other concert. Of course, as a performer, it is something really new to me. From the video, to the coloured lights, to the smelly, suffocating smoke and the wonderful zoom-in on the pianist's hands..it is really cool to have all these. The effects have definitely put Chinese traditional music (I mean, the pieces were so traditional!) in a very different light.

This is so far the best NUSCO concert that I have performed in during my three years there. :) And I think a very, very big part goes to amiable NUSCO-ians, who made practices and the on stage experience so enjoyable, and also the very capable leaders that we have. :) Three cheers to everyone! I am glad I didn't give this concert a miss :)

Fulfilling others' dreams = my dream

If my dream is to help others,

when i have finished helping others, I have essentially fulfilled my dream.

So, helping others is actually a form of helping myself - to feel happy.

In other words, stop thinking of me being an altruistic person!

I'm just kpo!

其實甚麼都不知道

我知道 我知道
我以為 我知道
我知道 我只是以為我知道

我不知道

節拍器 - 蔡依林

是我越來越像你 
還是隱形了自己 
小心翼翼你的語氣 
配合你的表情 

我的好勝心為你捨棄
以為這就是愛情 
直到自己 沒空氣 
才發現 不能再繼續 

我不願意 
再為了討你的歡喜 
別讓我的心 
就像是上緊發條的節拍器 
我的呼吸 
慢慢跟不上節拍器
最初的設定 
我們交叉在不同頻率 歸零

最初的設定 
我們交叉在不同 頻率 

放棄 時間把我們一起囚禁 
快樂傷心
愛要多少世紀
才能夠停止尋覓

不再演你愛的自己
妥協了語氣 節拍器 
在細數我的哭泣
可不可以 
不用再等著你靠近
我可以安靜 
聆聽時間倒轉的旋律 

暫停

Looking thru my posts..

Looking thru my posts, I kept looking at the word "bygone".

When I was typing my posts on cockroaches, Nat told me that "yes the thing is literally by-gone", like you spray and then it'll be gone.

I had my doubts, but was too lazy to check.

Today I decided to open my cabinet...

To Nat: The thing that you like so much.... is called "Baygon".
